Answer:
Xylem tissue is one of the main two types of vascular tissue in vascular plants(everything but bryophytes in terms of plants). Xylem carries water and minerals, whereas phloem, the other type of vascular tissue, mostly carries sugar/sap. The two types of cells in xylem tissue are tracheids and vessel elements/members. Both vessel elements/members(either name is common and acceptable) and tracheids are dead at functional maturity.
